I remember the evening
that we sat clinging
to paper cups
of coffee gone cold

over secrets spilled and memories told
two bodies cursed
with hearts grown old

behind your eyes
I found new worlds
A winding road stretched out for miles
to a small cafe at the end of the isle

Sweet pastries filled the mouths
of those who sat beside us
and stayed for a while.

How the hours went by,
people just passing through
The descending sun ending
a forever with you.

love and alcohol are practically the same thing.
you take it, and take it, and take it,
until all of the sudden,
you cant take anymore.
some people can take more than others,
some people push over their limit,
and those eventually end up hurt.
there's different flavors,
different strengths,
and sometimes different effects.
the initial feeling is good,
but at the end they both become a depressant.
they both leave you,
at 2 am
sobbing on your bathroom floor,
begging someone to come back.

you said you wanted me
thats was the first lie
you said you wanted to be with me
that was the second lie
you said i was the one you wanted
that was the third lie
you said that she meant nothing
that was the fourth lie
and fifth,
you said that you loved me.

and i dont know how i believed it all.

the first time
we met
you kissed me
and i pulled away
so you turned to her
and got your way

the first time
we met
you kissed me
and i pulled away
now i find myself wondering
if kissing you would've made you stay.

me
the reality is
i fall too hard
too fast.
i care too much
for the ones who care too little.
i love too much
and it makes me blind.
im naive
when theres someone i want.
i'll do whatever you ask
and i'll give you whatever you want.
i'll always want your attention
and i'll always try to make you happy.
im emotional
im dramatic
i'll tell you when i think something is wrong.
it will take a while to get me to trust me
but once i do
i will give you everything i have.
i'll love you until you break me
and then i'll love you again.

this is it.
this
is who i am.

my love is shown through caring.
you may think thats normal,
its the same as everyone else.
but no.
I care far more than anyone you will ever meet.
I care so much that I scared you away.
there is no harm in caring.
I actually wanted you for you.
I actually wanted to give you all the love I had in my heart,
but that scared you.
the closer I attempted to get,
the farther you ran.
and that is the reason
I've learned not to care.
